To the Honorable Members of the
Illinois House of Representatives
95th General Assembly
Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto House Bill 5730, entitled “AN ACT concerning local government.” I appreciate the hard work of the sponsors and share their support for local economic development. However, resources from tax increment finance districts are not intended to be inexhaustible
For this reason, I hereby veto and return House Bill 5730.
Sincerely,
ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH
Governor
